The Bourne Legacy

Review

The marketplace speaks. Robert Ludlum's most popular character was
arguably Jason Bourne, the deadly CIA agent with the fragmented
identity. All three of the Bourne novels --- THE BOURNE IDENTITY,
THE BOURNE SUPREMACY and THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM --- were among
Ludlum's most popular, and have achieved a new spike in popularity
thanks to the film adaptation of THE BOURNE IDENTITY. In an effort
to give the people --- and, yes, probably the film studios --- what
they want, the Ludlum estate has commissioned Eric Van Lustbader to
create a new Bourne novel. The result is a good, though not
perfect, fit that should please fans both old and new.
